Here's my opinion on this.... First off you DO NOT have to have at least a 125 g tank to have a yellow tang that's one of the craziest things I've heard thus far in this hobby. At least a 75 yes.... Next you would be surprised to see how many fish actually do get along when housed together...

Did you notify them of your loss yet? How long have you had him? If only a couple days I would not worry just yet. I would say he is probably just getting used to the new tank and needs time to adjust he should start eating in at least a few days. They should eat whether your looking or not.

Ok....We were not sure because we already have a dog and he's big fat and dark brown. No he's not agressive at all. he's a baby yet so that may come with time. As far as my snails anybody know? Thanks

Here is the best one I could get..hopefully this works :/

I just have a couple questions that I hope someone can answer....politley please and thanks. Are dogface puffers ever yellow in color, or gold. I've done research and can't seem to find that they are or can be. Someone gave us one with a tank we just recently purchased saying it's a dog, but it...

Has anyone used or is now using 78 watt ho t5 lighting? Is it a light I have to gradually adjust my tank to? Or can I just plug it in and go? Thanks for any help

As far as elements for the coral...I got that info from a saltwater fish store. The best on the East Coast. They deal with only saltwater and lots and lots of it...Thats what I add and my stuff seems to be doing great! But as with anything else saltwater related...trial and error...whatever...

Thanks for the help! I had no idea cc would make nitrates high?? Wow..ok Or is that just because of food waste maybe? And can we expect them to stay high? Or will they eventually just lvl back out do you think? I have suggested lr to him but he seems to think he don't want it don't need...

How long has your tank been up? I would add all the fish first...see how that goes then slowly get some corals dependent on how long your tank has been up..I would recommend at least 3-4 months with good water perim. The green ch are a good choice they are docile but need to be in groups of at...

The corals you have in mind are all easy to take care of...good choice for beginner. Just remember to give them space apart.. with right tank quality they will grow! Mushrooms need elements added to the water for nutrition...iodine etc. I feed mine that as well as phytoplankton. Not sure on the...

Thanks for the quick replys and advice. I was planning on going the t5 route...just not to sure what I can get with this type of lighting as far as corals. Everyone seems to say something different. (this includes all books, sites, stores, friends, family...everyone) I have found that...
